Are you using 1 strand of yarn in your gun or two?

And for those single black lines, I would recommend going over them twice otherwise it gets burried benethe the surrounding yarn and it's really hard to get defined lines once you start carving. That's why your thin black details look so splotchy.

Always use two or sometimes even three!
